Consider the chemical reaction in which carbon (C) reacts with oxygen gas (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2). What mass of carbon dioxide would be produced if 24 grams of carbon reacted completely with 64 grams of oxygen?

answer is: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

this is chemical change (chemical reaction), because two new substances are formed (metalig liquid and gas), the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

this is example of chemical decomposition.

chemical decomposition (analysis) is the separation of a single chemical compound into its two or more elemental parts or to simpler compounds.  

chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.
